Ska

Ska is great music that was formed in Jamacia, this was done by conbining amercian jazz with the traditional jamacian beat.
There is 3 waves, Jamacian ska (1st wave), two-tone (2nd wave), and Ameriacn ska (3rd wave). Throughout the years ska has greatly changed. some examples of ska bands are: the Skatilites, and Toots and the Maytals (Jamacian ska), the Specials, and the Madness (two-tone), Big D and the Table Kids, and Catch 22.

Ska is one of the greatest music ever created, and if you dislike it you suck because some of your favorite bands probably origonated form ska.

ska

An awesome feel good type of music that everyone loves. It makes you want to skank all over the place. It always reminds me of the first Tony Hawk Pro Skater game for N64.

"Police Truck" by the Dead Kennedys is a great ska song.

Bands like Reel Big Fish, Streetlight Manifesto, and Catch 22 are popular in the ska scene today.

ska

The greatest type of music ever, why listen to lame music when you can listen to ska. Extreme upbeatness, horns and checkered awsomeness. All other music dwindles in the shadow of ska.
